Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following are correct expansions? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

(a + 7)² = a² + 14a + 49, (3m - 2)² = 9m² - 12m + 4, (5 - n)² = 25 - 10n + n²

Correct: (a + 7)² = a² + 14a + 49 ✓, (3m - 2)² = 9m² - 12m + 4 ✓, (5 - n)² = 25 - 10n + n² ✓. Incorrect: (p + q)² should include 2pq term, (x - 1)² should be x² - 2x + 1

2multiple choice

Find the value of (9)² using expansion

Show answer

81

Write 9 = 10 - 1, then (9)² = (10 - 1)² = 10² - 2(10)(1) + 1² = 100 - 20 + 1 = 81

3multiple choice

What is the middle term coefficient in the expansion of (x + 5)²?

Show answer

10

(x + 5)² = x² + 10x + 25. The middle term is 10x, so the coefficient is 10. Using the formula 2ab where a = x, b = 5: 2(1)(5) = 10

4multiple correct

Which expressions can be written as perfect squares? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

x² + 8x + 16, y² - 6y + 9, m² - 10m + 25

Perfect squares: x² + 8x + 16 = (x + 4)², y² - 6y + 9 = (y - 3)², m² - 10m + 25 = (m - 5)². For perfect squares, check if b² = 4ac pattern holds
